I just learned about advertised shortcuts in Windows. But, I can't find any info on how to view what it's pointing at, what it will execute on double click. Is there a way to modify it, or change it's icon?

' GetRealTarget.vbs
' This version needs to be run under wscript engine rather than cscript
' Pass the full path to an MSI "Advertised Shortcut" lnk file (including the extension) as a parameter
' e.g. assuming that we have a default install of Office 2003 for All Users:
' GetRealTarget "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office\Microsoft Office Excel 2003.lnk"
' Displays fully resolved target for the MSI shortcut
Option Explicit
Dim MSITarget
On Error Resume Next ' just some simple error handling for purposes of this example
If wscript.arguments.count = 1 Then ' did actually pass an MSI advertised shortcut? Or, at least, a parameter that could be such a thing?
With CreateObject("WindowsInstaller.Installer")
Set MSITarget = .ShortcutTarget(wscript.arguments(0))
If Err = 0 then
MsgBox .ComponentPath(MSITarget.StringData(1), MSITarget.StringData(3))
Else
MsgBox wscript.arguments(0) & vbcrlf & "is not a legitimate MSI shortcut file or could not be found"
End If
End With
End If
On Error Goto 0
